6.USE OF THE COOKING HOB

6.1Lighting of the cooking hob burners

Before lighting the cooking hob burners check that the flame cap crowns are properly positioned with their appropriate burner caps: niche A must be centred with pin B.

Grid C should be used with Chinese woks.

Each knob corresponds to the burner indicated. The appliance is equipped with an electronic lighting device. Just press and turn the knob anticlockwise to the maximum flame symbol until the burner lights. Keep the knob pressed for about 2 seconds to let the thermocouple heat up. If the burner turns off when the knob is released, it means that the thermocouple isn’t hot enough. Repeat ignition and keep the knob pressed longer.

If the burners turn off accidentally, a safety device will trip after about 20 seconds to cut off gas flow (even with the gas tap open).
